"Yes, Your Highness!"
Ma He didn't know what happened, but he also felt something was wrong, so he responded and quickly retreated.
Soon, a team of chamberlains came in carrying a large round table and several large chairs, which were placed directly in the center of the hall.
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others looked at it in shock.
Then, there were plates of various barbecued meats with rich aromas, as well as jars of strong liquor.
"Gugu..."
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others suddenly made a sound in their stomachs.
Feng Sheng and Fu Youde couldn't help but look embarrassed, "Your Highness, please forgive me. I have been eating the coarse grains in the army for a while, and I have forgotten the taste of these barbecues!"
"It doesn't matter. It's so hard for Song Guogong and Ying Guogong to train for the Ming Dynasty. We must report to our father and ask him to send more food to Song Guogong, Ying Guogong and others."
At this moment, Zhu Di's expression recovered and he said sincerely.
"Come, come, you two old generals, and Marquis Yongchang, please don't be polite. Serve it quickly. We must have a good drink with you today."
After saying that, Zhu Di still didn't give Feng Sheng and Fu Youde a chance to speak. He once again ordered Ma He on the side: "Ma He, tell the chef to prepare two more carts of meat, two carts of vegetables, and one cart of vegetables." When Duke Guo of Song Dynasty leaves, I will bring it to Duke Guo Song."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Ma He responded and ran out quickly.
On the side, Zhu Fu opened his mouth and wanted to remind Zhu Di that the vassal king should not be too close to the leading soldiers such as Song Guogong, but remembering what Feng Sheng and Fu Youde had just said, he subconsciously shut up.
He actually came up with the idea of building a greenhouse of one hundred acres on the farm? Moreover, he personally took people to check it out and was not discovered by the three guards of Yanshan?
For a vassal king like His Highness King Yan who likes to lead the army, this matter is serious!
Similarly, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, and Lan Yu on the side were also shocked by Zhu Di's coquettish operation.
It's already a big deal to treat them to a meal at your house, but you have to take four big cars back for them?
Are you really not afraid of offending His Majesty's suspicion?
Feng Sheng said quickly: "Your Highness, this is absolutely forbidden. I and others are leading generals. According to etiquette, we cannot make friends with the vassal king in private.
Moreover, as the commander-in-chief of a large army, I and others have the same food as the generals in the army. How can I abandon my robes and start a small kitchen? "
“It doesn’t matter, it’s up to the general to make a small stove or share the food with the army!
Originally, we wanted to bring more to Song Guogong and others, but it is almost winter. We do have food in our house, but the meat and vegetables have begun to slowly decrease.
The old general should also know that our barbecue restaurant has begun to slowly reduce the amount of meat and vegetables these days! "
Zhu Di waved his hand casually and said again: "Come on, two old generals, Marquis Yongchang, use your chopsticks quickly. This barbecue will no longer taste good when it gets cold!"
When did Zhu Laosi learn to be so dark-hearted?
Feng Sheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Fu Youde and Lan Yu couldn't bear it anymore and started eating.
Seeing this, Feng Sheng had no choice but to start eating.
"tasty!"
"This barbecue is so damn delicious..."
As soon as they started eating meat, Feng Sheng and Fu Youde stopped talking about the farm greenhouse.
Seeing this, Zhu Di curled his lips and smiled, motioning to Ma He on the side to pour wine.
As the aroma of wine overflowed, Zhu Di directly picked up the wine bowl and said, "Song Guo Gong, Ying Guo Gong, and Yongchang Marquis, come, come, drink, drink, how can you eat meat without drinking?"
"That's right, I would like to pay tribute to His Highness! To the two veteran generals!" Lan Yu quickly picked up the wine bowl.
"Your Highness!"
Feng Sheng and Fu Youde also picked up their wine bowls. As for Guo An and Zhu Fu who were sitting next to them, they could only pick up their wine bowls and drink a bowl.
After one bowl, the atmosphere on the wine table suddenly changed.
Zhu Di, Feng Sheng and others started chatting again.
However, Feng Sheng wanted to lead him to the farm, but in the past few months, Zhu Di had already learned a lot from Guo An, and he could always lead him to other places, or directly tell Feng Sheng's words to him. Blocked.
After a few more bowls of old Baifen, Guo An and Zhu Fu no longer dared to drink wine and could only keep eating meat.
Feng Sheng, on the other hand, was already a little over the top and was angry with Zhu Di!
"Hey, Lord Song, we know that you are thinking about our one hundred acres of greenhouse, but we can't guarantee it!"
Seeing that Feng Sheng's temper had been worn to the limit, Zhu Di smiled bitterly and finally spoke directly.
"The greenhouse your Highness mentioned is the kind of glass house for vegetables?"
Feng Sheng's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"Exactly!"
Zhu Di said with a bitter and resentful expression: "It stands to reason that a hundred acres of land can grow a lot of vegetables in summer.
But in the dead of winter, who can say for sure? "
"Furthermore, the general may not know that in order to build the one hundred acres of greenhouse, it was just a matter of calcining glass. The right chief of our family led dozens of craftsmen and worked on it for three or four months.
In the 100-acre greenhouse, there are thousands of steel frames supporting it, cement floor dragons, and hundreds of iron stoves burning continuously. "
"In addition, there are hundreds of old soldiers who take care of them day and night... and they do..."
"But despite this, we can't guarantee that vegetables will grow in the greenhouse in the cold winter!"
"And even if vegetables grow, there won't be many... We in Prince Yan's Mansion still have such a large family to support, and we have to send some to my father and brother to try... In addition, those of us are just for the vassal." My brothers will definitely send someone to ask for it from us..."
"Song Guo Gong and Ying Guo Gong, you two may not think that we are the kings of Yan, but every year in order to support everyone in the house and the three guards of Yanshan, we have to drain our family wealth.
Otherwise, we would not have opened barbecue shops, built farms, and sent people to the sea to fish despite the abuse from those officials and businessmen.
However, who would have thought that Ying Guogong would actually lead thirty-five large ships and trawl the Bohai Sea for a whole month. All the fish in the Bohai Sea would be caught by Ying Guogong.
We have no choice but to buy wool everywhere in an attempt to make some more money from the wool to subsidize the palace’s expenses..."
"Song Guo Gong, Ying Guo Gong, it's hard for us as the King of Yan..."
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, and Lan Yu were dumbfounded.
Now you have a big table of barbecue and fine wine! And the glass used around the main hall, which one can reflect the poverty of your King Yan?
Feng Sheng couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, it's passed!"
"Huh? Mr. Song Guo still wants to drink. Come... let's stay with you!"
Zhu Di picked up the wine bowl and touched it towards Feng Sheng.
Feng Sheng's mouth twitched, but he had to drink.
After finishing a bowl, looking at Zhu Di's disgusting face across from him, Feng Sheng suddenly remembered something and became shameless.
"Your Highness, I am also suffering. I am already very old, but I have never eaten vegetables grown in winter.
Now, I have been training in Peking for more than two months. I can't eat well and sleep well every day.
I heard that His Highness King Yan has put in a lot of effort to grow vegetables in winter. We firmly believe in His Highness’ ability...
We just thought about winter, when we can eat a few bites of vegetables, even if we can’t eat them every day, as long as we have one bite every two days...no, one bite every five...tenth, I will be satisfied..."
"I have been fighting with His Majesty all my life, and my health is getting worse day by day. I..."
Zhu Di's eyelids trembled. He still underestimated how shameless these veterans were.
"I wonder when the general will lead his troops to conquer the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty?"
Feng Sheng's expression changed slightly, "Your Highness King Yan, I was just ordered to come here to train troops, but we really don't know when we will go out for battle!"
Zhu Di said: "When the Duke of Song goes on an expedition, we also want to go with the army to meet those remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty!"
Feng Sheng said quickly: "Your Majesty, King Yan, the general who conquered the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty was your Majesty and the ministers of the court. We are just one of them..."
Zhu Di smiled and said: "You are the general who conquers the captives. You can also recommend some people to the generals who will accompany the army. As long as you speak, my father will definitely consider it carefully!"
"His Royal Highness King Yan..." Feng Sheng looked embarrassed.
Zhu Di said: "As long as the greenhouse grows vegetables in winter, there will be a load of fresh vegetables every ten days!"
"this……"
“One load of fresh vegetables every eight days at most!
General, it’s not that we are stingy, otherwise we wouldn’t have waited until the general left to bring the four carts of meat and vegetables to the general. In fact, we can’t grow many vegetables in the greenhouse! "
"Your Highness King Yan, I am just a general who conquered the captives!"
"In addition, five iron stoves will keep the general very warm all winter!"
"Your Highness, how about a load of fresh vegetables every five days?"
"One car per day at most!"
Zhu Di shook his head firmly, "Even so, we can't guarantee whether we can supply it. If we can't supply it, we have to buy vegetables all the way from Guangxi and Fujian!"
"On the fifth day, there will be a cart of vegetables on the fifth day. Both I and Duke Ying will give advice in front of His Majesty." Feng Sheng said firmly.
"Duke Ying?" Zhu Di looked at Fu Youde.
Fu Youde nodded slightly.
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and said, "In this case, as long as our greenhouse can grow vegetables in winter, even if we don't eat vegetables, we will provide a cart of vegetables to Song Guogong and Ying Guogong every five days!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness Prince Yan, I will never break my promise!"
…
Wait until Feng Sheng and Fu Youde leave.
Zhu Di's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"Zhu Liang, Li Wang!"
"Your Highness?"
Zhu Liang and Li Wang quickly ran in from outside.
"Take a team of troops and follow me to the farm!"
"Here!"
Zhu Liang and Li Wang responded quickly.
Soon, Zhu Di, with a gloomy expression, led Zhu Liang, Li Wang and others towards the farm.
As for Guo An, he was unfortunately dragged onto his horse by Zhu Di.
When they got close to the farm, Zhu Di asked Zhu Liang to lead the two of them to explore the way. The group of people followed behind and moved forward carefully, avoiding the Yanshan Guards' riders until they stood on a hill not far from the farm. .
In this way, I have been waiting for about half an hour.
Zhu Liang and Li Wang looked increasingly uneasy.
"Your Highness, why don't we go in?"
"Where to go?"
Zhu Di glared at Zhu Liang coldly, "I waited for so many people to avoid those wanderers so easily and came here.
And now more than half an hour has passed, and no one has noticed us yet?
You said, if there are thieves who want to do evil to the farm, what will be the situation of the farm after such a long time? "
"Your Highness, calm down!"
Hearing this, Zhu Liang and Li Wang both couldn't help but shuddered, their faces heavy.
"snort!"
Zhu Di snorted coldly and glanced at the two rangers slowly appearing in the distance.
"Go, call all the generals from Yanshan's three guards and over a thousand households!"
"Follow the order!"
